Throughout our acquisition of a 220-year-old mixed-use commercial /residential property in historic Old Town Alexandria, VA, Peter Crawford’s knowledge, affable support, and guidance were exceptional. From the outset, he identified issues that we needed to consider, brought clarity to a complex transaction, and helped us to understand and navigate the finances, title, risk, and market considerations that were critical to our decision making. Peter’s analysis was exceptionally detailed and thorough, his regular communication was clear and timely, and his ability to anticipate issues before they became obstacles made a critical difference in keeping the deal on track. No other agent would have engaged at the level Peter did! His efforts included financial and cash-flow analysis, evaluation of property condition, and analysis and synthesis of market data to enable us to evaluate project feasibility. He spent numerous hours at City Hall reviewing historical records of land boundaries and ownership considerations of our 220 year old property. He identified and arranged for reliable contractors to complete the numerous necessary inspections and surveys. In the end, he delivered to us a comprehensive two-volume compilation of all documents related to inspections, appraisal, land title surveys, repair estimates, and insurance documents that effectively comprised a thorough feasibility study. It had been many years since we made an investment in real estate and having Peter as our Realtor gave us tremendous peace of mind throughout this complicated purchase. We felt confident at every stage because Peter ensured that all parties and participants were coordinated and that our best interests were always first and foremost. His professionalism, dedication and calm affability elevated the entire process, and we’re grateful for the five-star plus service and exceptional value that Peter Crawford brought to this historic building purchase.

Peter is great. He worked hard to find what I really wanted. He did a great job in communicating with the seller (HUD) and my lender. I looked at my place several times and he was so patient escorting me to the unit each times me. I highly and enthusiastically recommend him!!

Peter was professional and sold my unit for the price I wanted. I highly recommend him. He is trustworthy and knows the Washington, DC market well. I highly recommend him and will use him again when I am ready to purchase another home. He is great with investment properties and well connected.

I cannot recommend Peter highly enough. He helped me navigate the purchase of my current home during a very challenging time, and his support made a difficult process feel much more manageable. He brings a perfect balance of professional expertise and genuine care to his work. I’m currently working with him again to find my next home, and I wouldn't trust anyone else to guide me through this journey.

Peter is the absolute best real estate agent. He was professional, communicative, knowledgeable, and he worked extremely hard to sell our condo. He is not only an excellent real estate agent — he is an absolutely lovely person. We have two little kids and we’re moving to a new place, so we did not have much time to dedicate to the process of selling our old place; Peter adjusted his approach to our needs and made the entire process easy and straightforward for us, taking on all the details and hard work himself. I don’t know what we would have done without him!

Peter was very professional and researched the market in detail. Through his contacts, he was able to find a buyer who purchased it with no contingencies before we put it on the market. This was a tremendous help as we did not have to stage the house and were able to move out at our leisure.

I felt as if I had a trusted partner steering me through the difficulties of purchasing a property using a mortgage. The mortgage experience was horrifying, nonetheless, my agent kept everything sane, and assisted me to unravel the difficult task of baring my entire personal financial life to a complete stranger in the mortgage office. When a condition emerged that might have endangered the transaction, the agent moved quickly and effectively to solve the problem. It was reassuring to observe that his colleagues and competitors had suc h respect for him, his abilities, and his integrity.

I worked with Peter Crawford of Long and Foster to sell my condominium on Connecticut Ave, NW. Although the market for condos in DC seemed to have slowed down a bit, Peter was incredibly persistent in sending out announcements and holding open houses to generate buyer interest. Peter advised me well on staging the unit and on pricing and helped me find a painter and an electrician to do some minor electrical work. I just sold the condo and got my asking price. I am so grateful to Peter's skill in guiding me through the process and working so hard to ensure a good sale!

Mr. Crawford provided the correct and successful sales strategy, from the listing, to showings and closing. He was always attentive and thorough.

Knew the market and provided excellent strategic advice. Pandemic appropriate showing.

We chose Peter to represent us with the sale of our condos for a number of important reasons. First, he has a long-term and multi-generational perspective of real estate. Second, after a successful career in management consulting, he brings skills the enhance his ability to work with clients and negotiate deals. Third, he has a team at Long and Foster to bounce his ideas off of. And finally, he is patient. Buying and selling a home are among the most important and consequential decisions of a lifetime - and it can be a very stressful time. Peter has the ability to effectively manage the wide variety of behaviors and emotions that arise. We would recommend Peter without reservation.

We interviewed several realtors when selling our condos and listened closely to their pricing/marketing strategy + personal commitments related to overseeing the sale. While all the realtors on our interview list were good, we choose Peter and he delivered top-notch performance that exceeded our expectations.
